A visit to Dallas

What a fast and great trip to Dallas! We left Tulsa around 1030pm on Wednesday night and arrived in Irving with Mark waiting o nus at 3:10am. Hailey went right to Uncle Mark which is awesome considering her "mommy addiction" at night. Gran mommy even got up once she hear Hailey laughing at Uncle Mark. We snacked on ham and brownies before climbing into bed just to rise early.
Thursday morning came sooner than expected. Luckily we all bounced out of bed and met Poppy (Whit's dad) at his closing in Keller. He bought a condo in Dallas since he is over there often and Ryan is living in it for now. We dined at Mi Cocina ans played with Poppy and Uncle Ryan for a few hours. Hailey Grace can't wait to go swimming with Uncle Ryan this summer. The rest of Thursday was extremely fast paced. We ran out to Plano for signs, Lewisville for lock boxes, Keller to check on our house and to put a sign in Kristen' yard. It was great seeing them but next time we'll have to play longer. Hailey LOVES playing with all of Kensely's toys and Kensely was running around almost walking. After that, we met Jim/Lynn at Abuelo's for dinner. It was a late dinner and WAYYYYYY past Hailey's bedtime so she yelled all the way home. Poor little girl!
Friday we SOLD THE BOAT! The first couple that emailed me, bought it and paid cash! We were really glad to see the boat going to such a neat family. It will be missed but we didn't use it often. When picking up the boat from Weatherford, we visited with Grandpa Bell and had Sonic. Everyone always brings him Chicken Express so he was really excited about something different. Hailey played and climbed on him and napped in his rocker. The visit was very enjoyable and peaceful.
Once all the business was done, we headed swimming with Kristen, Jason, Jennifer, Audrey, XC, Jason, Lynn, Jim, Debbie & Larry. It was a great time and enjoyed seeing everyone. Larry ordered food from Vito's for dinner and OMG, it was GREAT! YUMMMMMMMY! Thanks Larry and Debbie. I have never seen such large slices of pizza.
The next morning arrived and we were in a rush to get back to Tulsa. Chris had to work at 3 and at 9:30, I was drinking Oj in the Bell's kitchen. We arrived home at 2:19 going up 75.
That sums up our FAST trip to Irving. We got a lot done (sold a house, listed a house, sold the boat, saw Grandpa) but next time we hope to play. Looks like it will be Hailey's Birthday before we are back in and then we'll be there to drop Hailey off the last weekend of August. We miss everyone and hope to have visitors soon!
